The parliament of the Israeli regime known as Knesset on Wednesday elected former centre-left politician Isaac Herzog as the new head of the regime (president), a role that is largely ceremonial.
Herzog beat rival candidate Miriam Peretz by a vote of 87 lawmakers to 26.
He will assume the post next month, replacing Reuven Rivlin, who is ending his seven-year term.
